If you have a pass, head up there. If not, wait a few weeks...it's not worth the $50 or so for their "40 trails."

Have a nice day everyone. :)

It's just that it's really not 40 TRAILS, because they count all sorts of itty bitty connectors. If you just wanna ski though, head up. They had about 4 feet of fresh last week, so it won't be bad skiing, just not the selection you're probably used to.

Have a nice day everyone. :)

actually, it was really worth it. on sat there was some powder to be found, a pretty sweet mini park and overall decent skiing. i would say that in the morning the snow conditions were better than 80% of midwinter days. and there weren't many people there on saturday so there were no lift lines.

Ugh, that sucks. I'll call my brother (he works as a snow-maker guy) and ask what the plan is.

Have a nice day everyone. :)

No word yet...my brother moved, and I don't have his new number. It is REALLY warm out, so it's defidentally not below freezing up at Killington right now. My guess is that they won't be open unless it dramatically cools down in the next day or so. :/

Have a nice day everyone. :)
